This isn't just about the Flames making more money.

In what way is the Flames/City of Calgary relationship like a partnership?
Does the City share in the revenue or profit from the team? No?
They they must receive a share of the increase of the value of the franchise over the time they've been in Calgary. No?
Oh well, at least the City is receiving tax revenue from the land and building. Oh, they're not?
Great partnership.
